The prospects for many types of jobs are ____ as automation progresses from manufacturing to clerical and retail jobs. Select on

Answer:

1. The return on investment is 20%

2. The total is $40,000

Explanation:

1. The formula for Return on Investment is defined as Net income from the Investment divided by the investment amount.

The net income mentioned in the question is the after-tax profit of $20,000.

The total amount Amelia invested in Goodies Gift Shop is reflected as owner's equity at $100,000 in the balance sheet for Year 2.

Using the formula: Return on Investment = 20,000/100,000 = 20%

2. We can calculate the projected pre-tax profit as follows: Projected margin minus total overhead = 250K - 200K = $50,000

Thus, the after-tax profit is computed as pre-tax profit multiplied by (1 minus tax rate) = 50K x (1-20%) = $40,000

Answer: $36,000 loss

Explanation:

Initial cost = $250,000

Shipping fees = $3,500

Setup fees = $2,500

Annual maintenance = $5,000

Depreciation amount = $25,000

Proposed selling price = $200,000

Total costs involved = $(250,000 + 3,500 + 2,500 + 5,000)

Total costs involved = $261,000

Depreciation amount = $25,000

Equipment's book value = $261,000 - $25,000 = $236,000

Calculating gain/loss = Book value - selling price

Gain/loss = $236,000 - $200,000

$36,000 loss

Answer:

The company’s offer for the rights to name the stadium amounts to $71,760.

Explanation:

The sponsorship’s total administrative cost is $78,000, which constitutes 8% of the revenue generated from the naming rights. Hence,

= Revenue × Percentage

= $78,000 × 8%

To find the amount proposed for the naming rights, we subtract the revenue-related expense from the total cost:

= $78,000 - $6,240

= $71,760

Markup(%) = 216.67%

Explanation:

Markup indicates the profit earned expressed as a percentage of the cost.

Markup = Profit / cost × 100

The cost consists of direct material costs, direct labor costs, and fixed costs.

Cost per unit = 5 + (100,000/10,000)

                     = 15 per unit.

The total cost for a pair is = 2 × 15 = 30.

Markup(%) =  $65 / 30 × 100 = 216.67%
